Governor Ducey to light Capitol Christmas Tree

Grown in Northern Arizona, southwest of Flagstaff in the Coconino National Forest, the white 26-foot fir tree was harvested in an area where the forest had recently completed a Forest Restoration Treatment designed to restore natural ecologic function and to protect the community of Flagstaff from a catastrophic wildfire.

The Chandler High School Treblemakers, an award-winning barbershop chorus from Chandler, Arizona will again perform a medley of Christmas songs prior to the governor’s remarks and the lighting of the tree.
